Welcome to episode 35 of the journey. It’s been a while. 😃

Ever tried to close a store account and felt like you were trying to escape a labyrinth? Join me as I share my personal and rather frustrating experience with modern technology that's supposed to simplify life but often complicates it.

This is a bit of a rant after a particularly frustrating experience. There are also positives, though, so stick around.
